Pros

it is a global company therefore it looks after its employees

Cons

the paper industry is on a slide so working here means you deal with restructuring and retrenchment on a regular basis, with that said promotion is slow because of being moved around frequently as the management tries to arrest the slide by maximizing profits and decreasing losses.

Pros

-Decent entry level pay for newly graduated mechanical engineer as a reliability engineer -Operations-Maintenance coordination has some improvements, not sure if they will stick

Cons

-Cloquet mill is very disorganized and chaotic -Near constant reactive "firefighting" operations -Maintenance department is not treated as a partner, but rather as a servant -Training in maintenance is a joke
